Curious about the prospect of getting a snake, always wanted one, and trying to do some research to learn what I'm going to need to know, setup, expenses, care, etc. Oddly enough, I'm having the most trouble finding information on these small snakes. So, in your opinion, which would you say is the most beginner friendly small snake? Since this will be my first, I would hate to have a delicate one that would die due to a small but stupid error on my part (typical beginner stuff). Right now I'm kind of learning towards a hog nosed. Others I've read about are pine woods, ring necked, red bellied, northern brown (DeKay), glass snake, grass snake, and garter snake.
I have an unused 10 gallon aquarium I'd like to use, if possible, but not necessary. I believe a hognosed would require a larger tank?
So, which snake would you recommend? Also keeping in mind availability, ease of getting food, etc.
I read the three pages of threads on this forum and couldn't find a thread like this one, exuse me if it's been covered before.
Thanks!
Justin
